First of all I want to give a little background about myself. I am an ex-Muslim. I have nothing against Yahweh although I not very fond of him. I am what you may call a Deist but I practise Demonolatry as my magical path. But I have nothing against working with entities from other paths if they are interested. Currently, I am working with a fallen angel. After all this do you think it is appropriate for me to invoke Archangel Raphael? On one hand I hear that some archangels are rather objective and won't have qualms working with people like me as long as I treat them properly and respect their creator. On the other hand some stories prevent me from even thinking about working with them. But I feel rather drawn to them.

A few days back I looked at Archangel Raphael's sigil and imagined it emanating an emerald green light. Then I invoked him to come to my life if he wishes to. I have requested him to give some respite to my father who is very ill. I know it sounds foolish. I only did it for three days. I don't think I will be doing it again but I just need to know whether I will be on the safe side if I ever try to do it again the distant future.

Raphael is many places simultaneously but as Raphael's subconscious, so you'd be envoking Raphael's subconscious. If it benefits Raphael(you don't have evil intents with Raphaels power) then it is acceptable.

The archangels of the four corners - Raphael, Gabriel, Michael, and Uriel, have supposedly been assigned to aid in human evolution by means of the four elements or sectors of being that they have rule over. I think their diplomatic sense in teaching and guiding more than being particularly judgmental of one path or another I think has to do with their understanding of free will or really, generally speaking, our predominant lack thereof. They're here to cultivate, as is everything else, and whatever you've been doing before working with them and whatever you'll do after is part of what you're supposed to be doing at that given time.

In other words I'd say go for it - the worst you could do is have your own trepidations cloud the communication and it might be perhaps better to ease your way into it if you have gut-level concerns that would need to be cleared first.

Yes. But I need a credit card for that. As I am a student I am not allowed to have a credit card. I can have a supplementary one in my dad's name. But he is going to freak out if his next bank statement says that I have bought a book on magic .
